Here's A Beautiful Visualization Of Nobel Prizes By Country Since 1901

This year's
Nobel Prize ceremonies are in full swing: On Tuesday, three
physicists were
awarded for their work on revolutionary light bulbs. On
Wednesday, two Americans and a German
won the chemistry prize for making it possible "to
study molecular processes in real
time."

As you can see
from this chart detailing the total number of Nobel prize
laureates awarded from 1901 to 2013, the US has more than twice
as many Nobel laureates as the next
country (UK).
